Our goal is for all students to be accepted to at least one four-year college or university. At Everest:
DataSource: 2007 Educational Opportunity High School Report
We incorporate curricular aspects that develop students to enter college with the academic skills and character traits needed to enable their success: intellectual curiosity, creative expression, critical thinking, value-based reasoning, and awareness and empathy for other people and cultures, beliefs, and ways of life.
Extra-curricular Activities
Participation in extra-curricular activities is essential to developing a well-rounded student. It is also an extremely important component of the college application. College applicants are most attractive when they have a strong academic record and demonstrate a sustained commitment to select extra-curricular activities.
We focus on developing happy, healthy students who have a well-balanced lifestyle that mixes academic classes with personal passions and enjoyable extra-curriculars. The majority of these activities are driven by student interest and demand. The philosophy at Everest is to embrace student leadership and initiative. Students can expect the full support of the faculty in their interests and endeavors. Many of the activities and extra-curriculars take the form of intersession classes, clubs, committees, athletic teams, and organized social occasions.
